(ANOTHER!) NEW SPONSOR ANNOUNCEMENT! Acrylicos Vallejo is another NEW sponsor! Their Facebook page Acrylicos Vallejo should need no introduction to miniature figure painters, but just in case you're unaware of who they are, they are THE go-to paint brand for many model painters around the world. They are a Spanish company that make acrylic paints for artists, fine artists and model painters, and their products are considered the gold standard in the world of military static model (where their Model Color and Model Air range are king) and also for wargaming models (with the Game Color and new Game Air range). Some samples of their products:     I don't know yet exactly what products they'll be sending for prizes, but once they arrive I'll post pictures!

Pash posted:Thanks! There is some part of me that wont let me paint armies the color they are in the fluff or whatever... so I decided a blue winter circle would be awesome. Man, I'm with you there. My Khador are probably the first army I've painted similarly to the fluff in years and even then I'm wanting a more vague memories of Red Alert vibe than anything. My favourite army but the one that broke me are my green-skinned zombie skaven.

Oath complete! I think they turned out ok, but I struggled with faces in particular. I think I need some better brushes to help me with finer detail, my £2 set has its limitations. And maybe a steadier hand... I tried to thin my paints more than previously, mixing colours and layer things up, but it gets a bit punishing when you slip and need to correct! No challenge for me as I couldn't find something to paint yellow, but I'm claiming The 6-pack! and Box art for Bane:   And a few close-ups of the other guys. These two I was practising with layers and skin tone on. Was tempted to try a tattoo but chickened out.   Alfred's hair was a bugger, I may yet go back and re-work it. I gave pin stripes a go on his trousers, not too bad for a first attempt I think.

Oath complete!    Bao Troops     Asuka and her Aragoto bikers    Yojimbo, and friends Claiming the Journal for the yellow bike, Themed Group for the Yu Jing Red Army if that's a thing this year, and 6-pack of course. I had a terrible time trying to get the yellow to highlgiht properly, and the images sadly reflect how chalky the layers came out. I think I need to buckle down and glaze if I'm going to try and do larger areas with yellow. Rather happy with how vivid I got the reds though.

 Oath Complete!  One yellow snake lady for the Journal  I have no idea how those few scales turned pink overnight, when they were all painted with the same yellow paint. I like this model because she's pretty, but also hella ripped.  Unfortunately, being made from Bones plastic meant that her hands were kind of melted together in places and somehow she had both nips, but only one with a scuplted areola. If the snake lady is too naked to be sfw, I can edit in more spoilers. Edit: Took a picture outside, to try to show the difference between the yellow of her human and snake halves a bit more. Her top is way lighter than her tail in person.

A lot of people just put the models in front of their monitor or on the keyboard of their laptop displaying the american samoa timestamp. Your picture does not need to be good, so long as other people can make out what it is. Some of mine have been little more than silhouettes of black primed minis in the shape of the thing I'm oathing.  Just make sure you get the time zone right and are starting to paint on the 1st of the month according to it. And that you are posting your oath complete pics under the same criteria!

Assuming front-facing photos are possible, then they might be stuck with a miniatures mirror-selfie, then. Which would be silly, but workable, I'd think.
